So, yeah... reactions seem to be all over the place. To the point where I might wait for digital/streaming. I'm traveling all weekend, but have an IMAX ticket for Thursday, so I guess I'll see how I feel then. If I still haven't packed, though, and/or don't feel like squeezing the movie in before I leave, I don't know that I'll make an effort to see it in theaters next week when I'm back. I'm sure it'll play better in a theater, but considering the multiple Disney+ comments, it also feels like the perfect movie to knock out at home right before seeing the much-better-looking Thunderbolts in theaters to kick off the summer.

My biggest fear was that Ford was going to be bored and mail it in here. If you'd have told me Ford was locked in and they nailed the chemistry between the leads, I would have said they did the hard part and the movie would be a success. So I guess I'm actually more interested than I was before the reviews.

Thank you for the reviews. Very happy to see the two leads are Mackie and Ramirez, that Onah is finally getting high-profile opportunities, Lumbly and Roquemore have decent roles, and we get to see Esposito.

Would have really preferred an actor such as Morgan Freeman in the role of Ross, reprising his turns as a national leader we've seen in Deep Impact, Angel Has Fallen, Olympus Has Fallen, London Has Fallen.

Cut the check?

What, for giving a good review?

"I am hype"?

These reviewers really want attention.

Cut the check is Mackie's go-to phrase when they've finished filming a scene.

Well those reviews seem to cover the entire range of suck to awesome.

Regardless, I was always going to see a new Captain America movie (Mackie's recent comment notwithstanding). Probably going Saturday morning, but I have yet to get tickets.

These are good points, but we need to wait to see the film to judge.

It's like AI reviews on Amazon
"Most reviewers found the movie awesome and a worthy entry in the MCU post Endgame. They highlighted the well put together plot and Winter Soldier-esque political intrigue. While other said the movie was hashed together with dumb villains and a mediocre plot. Go with God and live in peace"

Alright.

Appreciate the review posts. Honestly, I think they make me more excited to see it. I haven't been overly excited about this one and the trailers didn't blow me away, so maybe it's an expectations thing. I would never expect it to be universally adored, but I like the commentary. The positives seem good (obviously) but even the negatives are nothing terrible that you wouldn't expect from most decent MCU movies. So I'm taking all of these in the aggregate as pretty positive.

The point is that I really hope Disney does not follow the precedent of The Acolyte: advances of BIPOC Representation (especially in creation and show running), more modern storytelling, fresh perspectives…

And yet, cancelation. No to season 2, after facing (rather problematic) backlash online.

We have a new Captain America, for example, and Disney needs to stand strong in the face of some rather unfortunate criticism. We can do better, but it takes all of us.
Your schtick was better when it was just "I saw this movie before it went to post-production..."

So Redstone was better before everyone discovered Redstone?

So that would put it at 3rd worst in the MCU, ahead of Quantumania and Eternals.

Definitely mixed but sounds like it should be at least an entertaining popcorn watch.

I've got a half day next week and will probably go check it out that afternoon.

Reviews posted here seemed like 60/40 in favor but that's me just eyeballing it. Feels more like a rental at this point.

So JLD copyed Gabbard's look for the movie? Because Gabbard's done the white top, grey hair streak back in 2022.

I think it's just pure coincidence. Because the character of Valentina had the white streak in the comics way back when. It's just crazy with the timing, the similar roles, etc, that's all.

Valentina Allegra de Fontaine has had a hair streak in comics since 1967

Occam's Razor: this is a blatant political "never let an opportunity go to waste moment". Looks to be coincidental with the hair streak but they clearly played up Margo to look as much like Tulsi as possible because they were handed an opportunity to do so.

Also, what is "uWu torture apologism" mean?
